Switching between DVD's: Anyone here ever use these DVD players that hold multiple disks?

Yes, it will remember where you left off when you switch discs. This is usually a standard feature in DVD changers. My particular model is a Sony, but I'd be willing to bet that the Onkyo will do the same thing.

Should wrk. I only have two drives connected but they work just fine. I also use a external DVD player/recorder and printer. all have no problem working. Good luck.

Absolutely, yes! I make backup copies of all my DVDs (except Disney which has found a way to always cause a redundant cyclic error to protect their DVDs) to Philips DVD+R DL discs and they all play perfectly.

Yes, this device will serve your needs to duplicate the DVD you have created. It duplicated DVD's quickly, if you need more than one disc at a time I may suggest the Copystar products that duplicate more than one DVD at a time. I hope that this was helpful to you!

Linda: Not sure if this will help or not, but some older players such as the Panasonics require only DVD - disks. If you are using DVD+ disks, they will not work in some older players. Newer players can accept both the + and the - versions. Hope this helps.

I tried it - when I stopped playing of DVD, switch off and again switch on (no open of disc) then it started to play when I finished before. It is sufficient reply? Roman

I use mine to switch between ROKU and DVD Player on my second HDMI input. It should work for you too. I have to mention that if I switch from DVD to ROKU directly, I have to turn off the TV for a few seconds for it to switch correctly. If I am watching TV and switch to ROKU it works perfectly. Due to having only one input you will either have to turn off Direct TV or TV before switching, for the switch to work automatically.

Yes. I primarily got this unit to play discs of various kinds and I have played DVDs as Well as Blu-Ray and CDs.

Yes I have. Filled one almost completely and holds up well. I have over 400 cds....

I have used almost 300 of these disks and only had one which I had a problem with, and that was not the fault of the dvd but the fault of the program I was using to format a avi into dvd and burn at the same time. Almost every time I've had a problem with any dvd it has worked out that it was a software problem. That said, also you want to clean your dvd burner as new dvd's tend to be very dirty, so clean your drive every 20 or so disks, made a big difference for me

On the display screen make sure it says "ALL DISCS" and not "1DISC". Having "ALL DISCS" selected will transition from one CD to the next like you want. Selecting "1DISC" will stop the player after the one CD has finished.

The dvd player will only hold one at a time. Keep in mind also that the quality of the DVD is mediocre. The sound is very good but I was not satisfied with the player.

The answer appears to be no. WHY, IN GOD'S NAME no one seems to be able to figure out that I -- and I'm betting lots of others -- don't want to have three freaking different devices for handling streaming media, locally stored media, AND disks (i.e., DVDs, BRs) is beyond me. Everyone tackles ONE part of the damned problem, and totally ignores the other two.

Mine plays DVDs better than any DVD player. Return your unit and get another one.

Bud Bundy is right, it is personal preference and also what works best if you intend on playing recorded disks on another player. I use the -R and -RW disks, because this format is more compatible with most DVD players - especially if you have an older one you want to play your recordings on. Eventhough the -R can only be recorded once, I'll use it for things I want to keep and have no intention of recording over. The -RW I use for everyday use and a good quality disk is supposed to allow you at least 2000 recordings. I hear Verbatims are very good quality, but I've been using Maxell & Memorex , because that's what I had on hand. Has worked excellent for me.

I'm sorry, I have not tried that. I simply attach it from one dvd player to another usually. It is my belief that it will work though. It works with all other devices I've tried. I have to say that this device is worth every penny though as it has allowed me to make my own compilations of media. Good luck!!!

I never had a problem with the DVD player on my computer, as to the partitioning, that's the way they all are yes. This makes it slightly easier too to reformat and reinstall your OS on your main drive (C) without effecting your data drive (D), it simply means you have to make sure to install things on your D, and personally I moved ALL directing to the user files over to the D drive as well, by simplying copying them over, and changing C to D in most areas having to do with downloads and pictures/movies uploads etc It's a slightly weird partition yes, but it makes your files much more secure.
